obviously I passed but wasnt sure if this was the right play?

If i get it in I'm praying for AK, i guess he could have 77-99  :dontask:

I think there are plenty of times you are good here, but you really need to let us know any reads you have and also is this the FT or are there more tables to go? It says table 4 but is that just a number or an amount of tables remaining?

Oh and I probably shove anyways

Oh and what stake is this?

sorry for rubbish PHA intro, will do a proper OP when i finish session

Pretty sure it is $11, final 2 tables. Top 6 pay.

Edit- Oh hang we are on the button? High five the dealer before shipping it in.

Pretty sure I am never passing 1010 on the button in an unopened pot with 13bbs.

Dont think I've ever posted on the PHA board, but has to be a Level?

did your mouse break just after you raised causing you to timeout fold?

Sov, WTF?

lol - i'm bad.

Oh dear :'(

do we prefer open jam (with 12bbs no antes)


or raise call here with TT

Personally I prefer open jamming, as strong as TT is its vulnerable to most broadway hands and its a awkward hand to see a flop with, on the rare occasion we see a flop in this sort of spot.

If I had some reads on the blinds, ie. they were very aggressive/loose & capable of restealing, I dont mind bet-calling, opening to 750 so it looks like Im leaving myself 10bb if I fold.

Got to be an open jam for me. TT shouldn't be at the bottom of your range so you could feasibly get called by worse.

Limp/call or raise/call are only options if you sometimes limp/fold or raise/fold and there's someone there who may have noticed.

i prefer open jam nowadays - so many Ax hands snap from bb

Depends who the blinds are.

The more comptent they are, I prefer raise/calling but I am not one of the regs who constantly jams 15bbs without antes so this doesn't look out of line for me. Against total donkeys shoving is fine but I raise/call more than shove deffo. As we open the blinds ranges up by making a normal raise compared to shoving, we do have position post flop which does help even this shallow.

This

Meh, I just jam.

But I think that's dependant on my image as a loose reg.

Thank you for the feedback. Much appreciated, I don't contribute that much to PHA but whenever I post everybody is really helpful so thanks again!

Good luck for whenever you next play

thank you for your kind words.

is this another one where I have called?

My reason behind folding is no shoves from villain upto this point and with two shorties on the bubble I felt passing was the right option...

here we go again!

There's a comment relevant to this hand from earlier on.

"Sov, WTF?"

And most of the others tbh...

I'm going to re-name this thread...

Lol I like it, very apt!

i think james is wrong. its a sigh fold imo

level?

bubble time with two super short stacks, FTP pays top 6 not 7 like stars.

no

Sigh, I've gotten confused. Sorry ss/greeky.

For some reason I thought there were antes and we were on a 90-man bubble :)

Yuck. With UTG having no chips we probably need some sick range like QQ+/AKs.

I still find it hard to fold AQ in these kinda spots against a cut-off shove though, as we have their range crushed usually.

lol obv

Good fold imo with the effective stacks and the shortie.

Yo longy, did you see the hand I bubbled with when we shared a FT at 4ish longy? A guy was sitting out with 55 chips, I had 5bbs on the button and shoved 66... Sb snapped with 10 7.

Standard fold ?

Yeah I saw it, was pretty sick sb was an idiot. The shove is fine.

I beat the sb donk heads up.

Good glad you beat him!!

Im not

fold


iso shoving is a bit spewy

and calling isnt great as he can easily shove over u

I snap fold this very quickly.Natansatan probably has a small/mid pair.

Mond, early in 45mans pre 50/100 whats your play with small to mid pp's from UTG, mid pos, late where its unopened.

I think I play them a bit differently to maybe James or Longy,I fold worse than 88 in ep in mid pos I'll inc 77 and late pos inc 55-66,I basically hate limping.Although in these games you don't really need to worry about range merging I just think it's so obvious to other regs what you have by limp/calling,limp/folding with these hands.

I limp small pairs in EP as long as I have more than 50bbs which on tilt is pretty much the 15/30 level only. I fold 22-88 in ep and from hijack open 66-88, CO/BTN i open raise all pairs.

Yeah I fold the a10.

I butchered the A10 to be honest, thanks for you input on the pairs, need to reduce leaks and i think PP's are my biggest atm.

cheers mond

Agree with this...
